Harvard Beats Yale 29-29: …and Other Great Comebacks from the Annals of Sports

Barry Wilner,Ken Rappoport

When Harvard came back from a 16-point deficit with less than a minute to go to tie Yale in their now-famous 1968 gridiron tilt, the headline in the Harvard Crimson the following Monda proudly boasted, Harvard Beats Yale, 29-29. This and nineteen other improbable comebacks are the subjects of Wilner and Rappoport’s latest volume of extraordinary achievements from the world of sports, and include the 1914 miracle Braves, Billy Casper’s incredible rally to beat Arnold Palmer in the 1966 U.S. Open, the New York Giants’ magical playoff run in 1951, and others. Also included are sidebars on individual athletes whose combacks included overcoming disease (i.e. Lance Armstrong) and reviving a career (i.e. Michael Jordan and Muhammad Ali).
